Located on Mount Alexander Road, our institution is a point of interest for those seeking support and guidance in their journey towards improved mental well-being.

At Melbourne Metro Psychology, we understand that depression in men is often more complex than simply feeling sad or blue. Many men are unaware or fail to recognize the signs and symptoms of depression. Our experienced team specializes in addressing the unique challenges faced by men, particularly in areas such as work, family, and relationships, which are often associated with depression.

Do you feel overwhelmed and pressured at work? Have your relationships changed? Is there never enough time in the day to complete your tasks? Do you lack energy and constantly feel tired and run down? These are just a few examples of the many symptoms that can accompany depression. From relatively minor to severe, depression can significantly impact one's daily life.

Our skilled psychologists are equipped to address different types of depression, including melancholia depression, which is a classic form of biological depression, and non-melancholic depression, often linked to psychological causes. We offer effective treatment through cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a short-term therapy that typically requires 15 to 20 sessions. CBT focuses on identifying and modifying negative thought patterns that contribute to depression, leading to positive changes in emotions and behaviors.

Dr. Peter Eide, our esteemed psychologist, has extensive experience in treating depression, anxiety, and addiction in adolescent and adult men. He also works with women, providing comprehensive and personalized care. With over two decades of experience, Dr. Eide has worked in various mental health settings, including youth mental health, alcohol and drug services, community health services, and a university. He holds a PhD in psychology from the Brain Sciences Institute at Swinburne University of Technology, where he explored cognitive processes, personality profiles, and brain imaging in patients with depression.

Conveniently located within the Travancore Business Centre, our office is just a few minutes' drive north of Melbourne CBD. We offer ample parking facilities and are easily accessible via tram stop 28 on the Airport West #59 tram route, as well as a short walk from the Ascot Vale train station on the Craigieburn line.

At Melbourne Metro Psychology, we believe that everyone deserves access to quality mental health care. Our fees are significantly lower than the recommended fee set by The Australian Psychological Society, ensuring our services are accessible to all. A 46–60-minute consultation with Dr. Peter Eide is available at a more affordable rate.

Take the first step towards a brighter future. Contact Melbourne Metro Psychology today and let us help you on your journey to improved mental well-being.
